Hi Matt,  i recently picked up another Duratec 1600 for $350(31k kms) from a 2011 Fiesta, dang thing has dual vct  , totally different to my older(2005) Duratec 1600 (Formula Ford Racing) . The new motor is complete with everything i need inc starter motor as the older motor was incomplete with most of the front bits missing, oil pump, cam belt tensioners etc.  it will be used as a dummy fit up...

Hi Marty, any idea what will be required for rego in SA with regard to the Duratec.
 
I'm thinking of doing a similar swap to my 105E sedan as I have a 2011 Fiesta I drive every day and am liking the engine more each day.
 
Great work so far too. I have read the whole thread a couple of times over :)
 
Cheers, Dave

Hi Dave , the last I've heard is the biggest motor allowed in a 105e is a 1600cc so I'm going from that info lol. If you plan on a fiesta motor like mine you will need all the sensors and ecu from that vehicle....I'm running mine on lpg which deletes the need for factory ecu , just a Megajolt lj ignition kit for sparks. I am planning a turbo for it later but don't tell anyone ,ha !

Time for an Anglia update Marty!
